My Hope is built on Nothing Less Lyrics

My hope is built on nothing lessThan Jesus' blood and righteousness.I dare not trust the sweetest frame,But wholly trust in Jesus' Name.

Refrain

On Christ the solid Rock I stand,All other ground is sinking sand;All other ground is sinking sand.

When darkness seems to hide His face,I rest on His unchanging grace.In every high and stormy gale,My anchor holds within the veil.

Refrain

His oath, His covenant, His blood,Support me in the whelming flood.When all around my soul gives way,He then is all my Hope and Stay.

Refrain

When He shall come with trumpet sound,Oh may I then in Him be found.Dressed in His righteousness alone,Faultless to stand before the throne.
